Finding the Right Words

There is one thing about me that I really do not like. I'm horrible with words when I'm trapped in a serious situation or I really need to put my message across. Give me a few minutes and a laptop and my words will flow out of my head, making everything okay. Sadly it doesn't work like that in the real world. The worst thing about this is the fact that I am unable to stop myself when I am talking. My words just slip out of myself, making it impossible for me to make any sense at all.

Because I enjoy writing, it broke my heart when someone who writes as often as me got placed in remedial English. Not just any remedial English, but LLD1, the lowest English ever. In the class yesterday, we were having a discussion about some article and I felt as if I was the only one talking and voicing my opinion.... or at least attempting to. I know I ramble, but sometimes I wish someone would listen to me and try to understand what I'm staying rather than just stare into space and ask me what I said 50 times, making my rambling 10 times worse than the original.

  1. If you want to be in regular English, you have GOT to proofread! Seriously I see two errors here. In the last sentence, you wrote "I'm staying" instead of "I'm saying", and then in your tags/labels, you wrote "Remedial Enlighs". And you do have a serious case of "ramble-itis".

    Okay all joking aside, maybe you need to target your thoughts to people who actually care. Forget those silly English folks. Seriously, they don't deserve to hear your words.
